| Audio Physic Avanti 3 I was at NY as well. The Audio Physics were not optimized for the room, but they sound superb. Not as big a sound as you get with Magnepan. The Joseph speakers are also excellent. | |
| Hi or LO cartridge for LP-12/ITTOK? Get an Ekos. I had the Ittok. Big difference. | |
| PS ultimate outlet I was wondering what the sentiment was about the 15 amp revised version, which I tried and was not bowled over by. The 20 amp version is quite different and includes an upgraded plugs. | |
| What is better ML, Krell or Classe I think it's unfair to compare the 401 to these amps. You need to compare the Classe CAM-350s or the Omicron. | |
| Tube amps for Maggie 3.5 or 3.6 Look at Brian Damkroger's review in Stereophile, where he talks about being a tube guy, but advises, most strictly, against using any tubes with the 3.6. Go with a high-powered, ultra-fast power amp--Spectral, Classe, Levinson,Plinius etc. | |
| PS Audio Ultimate outlet Yes, I should note that I've been sent a revised outlet in which the fuse is no longer in series. This is said to drastically improve performance. I'm going to run it in and will report in a few days. | |
| PS Audio Ultimate outlet I disagree with you. PS Audio is not a great company; it's a fantastic one. But on the outlets for the amps something has gone terribly wrong; I wonder if it's the flimsy power cords, but I doubt that that alone can account for the terrible effect... | |
| PS Audio Ultimate outlet The outlets definitely do not work on the amps. A/B'd them with a friend who is not an audiophile. Immediately said they sound harsher. He was right. Harsh and they shrink soundstage. A little cleaner sound. | |
| PS Audio Ultimate outlet I think you guys may be right about the amp. But I've plugged one outlet into my P600 and plugged the digital components into it. Big improvement. Then plugged second outlet before the P600--again, the improvement here is nothing to sneeze at. Str... | |
| New CAT owner with a few questions???? The idea that there is no difference between the Mk. 3 and Ultimate is far-fetched. I have both, and the Ultimate is clearly superior. In fact, I could hear the difference thirty feet away; the Ultimate simply provides a bigger soundstage, tighter... | |
| CAT Phono Stage Alas, the hum is in both channels, more on left than right, though. I think it's RF. I'm not sure there is a cure, but will call CAT. It would be a shame to abandon the phono stage. | |
| Classe Cam 350, Bryston 7bs or Sim W5 Re: my Classe recommendation. I also have 3.6 Maggies. The Bryston are too crude. | |
| Classe Cam 350, Bryston 7bs or Sim W5 Go with the Classe. I used Brystons, ended up going with Classe Omicron. | |
| Are Carver amps worth a damn? No. They aren't. |
